@luxfero This is what I was gonna say: Read "Agrarian Justice" by him... They'd call him "socialist" for his views (and atheist, and globalist, and...)

Thomas Paine is talking! Will People Listen? When Mr. Paine Talks, Everyone Should Listen!

@satomiwa I've also wondered how he came to the opinion he did. In Age of Reason, he says that he hopes for happiness in the afterlife. Since the rest of the book seems to be based on some logical conclusions that he came to, like science being the one true theology, what made him stand by the idea of an afterlife?

"Its first settlers were emigrants from different European nations, and of diversified professions of religion, retiring from the governmental persecutions of the old world, and meeting in the new, not as enemies, but as brothers. He sees his species, not with the inhuman idea of a natural enemy, but as kindred" - Thomas Paine (the real one)

@curetheingorant , he was actually a deist. He believed in some form of a creator (intelligent design), but his God-concept had to do with nature and nothing more. But your point is well taken - he flat out rejected Christianity and denied that Jesus was the "son of God" or that the Bible was divinely inspired. I wonder, if he lived in our time, if he would have been an atheist.

[satomiwa]

Thomas Paine moved to America when he was 37, and moved back to England (and France, even though he didn't speak the language) 13 years later. I'm sure he would have kept his English accent while he was in the US and long afterward, when he was arguing in favour of government social programs to help the poor, and when he was condemning Christianity (and all organized religion) as man made instruments of greed, tyranny and oppression. This video portrayal is a huge fail.

Sorry to brake it to all you Teabaggers, but Thomas Paine was a hard core atheist.

Who the fuck is this guy? He sounds nothing like Paine, have you ever even read his works?

Switzerland has been pretty multicultural for I dunno centuries now.
